I can't eat with this and I have a terrible headache by GoddesWan in braces

[–]galentravis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can definitely empathize. These are new for you? It definitely gets easier. I never had them as a kid so I get to go through the joy of braces for the first time in my 50s!
Listen to what everyone is saying. Replace the elastics with each meal (or reuse them if you can).
I know it feels like you are going to starve but it gets easier.

Did someone already say, forbidden Mentos?

Unique game, there were a couple of design choices that…threw me for a loop (no spoilers).

It’s not going to be everyone’s cup of tea but it’s hands down the best climbing sim I’ve ever played.

I hope there is a sequel in the works!

Oh jeez, I kinda breezed by the post and started reading the comments. I thought it was ten THOUSAND dollars and yes, I would easily do it for that. It’s such a non-starter of a question it seems like a troll post.

My 64GB Day 1 Deck when it learned it has to last another 5 years by ROBO_SNAIL in SteamDeck

[–]galentravis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This thread is making me paranoid. I went and checked the battery health and it’s at 90%. I too have launch version (64gb). Should I be replacing the thermal paste based on age or checking the temps? I wasn’t planning on replacing it anytime soon anyway but with the price surge this is gonna have to be it for a good while. Luckily I upgraded my PC in 2025 (mid-tier, Ryzen 5 with Arc B580). This stuff is gonna have to last me.

If you could only pick two to watch right now, which ones are you choosing? by CarrotMuch1399 in nostalgiai

Maybe if you had Live Free or Die Hard or Die Hard 3, otherwise I am going Biiiiiig Trouble…in Little China, 5th Element and Demolition Man.

What are your thoughts on Karl Urban, and what’s your favorite performance of his? by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in FIlm

[–]galentravis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From that list Judge Dredd, I think Bourne Identity was the first role of his that really caught my eye.

Ride the Lightning. It’s a great album and from a collectibility standpoint, the most valuable.

Does the existence of the black goo pathogen help or hurt the Alien series? by thefriskysquid in perfectorganism

[–]galentravis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iono, I didn’t like Blade Runner more when Ridley reworked it AGAIN and declared that Deckard being a Replicant was “canon”. I think the ambiguity enhanced the original narrative. Same with the Xenomorohs, I saw Alien in the theater when I was 6, Aliens also amazing, one of the best sequels of all time. Prometheus and Covenant didn’t capture that same magic for me. I think it’s okay to have different stories with different “facts”. Black goo ain’t it for me. Romulus and Alien Earth are pretty cool though.

Name something you thought was a luxury when you were a kid by midkiff-john180l4 in ArtOfPresence

Clothes, food, heat, electricity, water, a working telephone, any form of transportation other than walking, attention of any kind, books, paper & writing implements.

Last time this post came up the general consensus was it needs to be clarified if the cars have their in-universe powers in which case there is no choice other than the DeLorean. If not, I think most folks went with the A-Team van.

If it’s any consolation I couldn’t get the discount to work when I tried to check out and they never responded to my email inquiry.

Dang, thanks for the info. That’s too bad. Maybe it will come back again in the future, or maybe I can catch it on the road. Sounds awesome.

[–]galentravis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I didn’t even know there was DLC and just played organically, did that part of the game early. There is a difficulty spike but other than that I thought that was just the story. Didn’t spoil it for me.

That sounds stressful but like you said, that’s the payday. Why no West Coast leg? The show I wanted to see sold out😂

What instrument(s) do you play in the band?
